This is the first generation 3300 System. This system may have serial communication capability, but it predates and is not compatible with the internal data interfaces (TDe or SDI/DDI) and most recent external communication processors (SDIX/DDIX, TDIX and TDXnet™ CPs). The Original System can, however, communicate with a Digital Control System (DCS) or with DM2000 Software through a DDM, PDM, or TDM CP. These systems can be upgraded to the Mixed System, TDe or SDI/DDI System configuration, depending on your interface requirements. 2.1.2 Mixed System This is the Original System with a 3300/03-01 System Monitor that does not have internal SDI/DDI capabilities but can interface to a DDM, TDM, PDM CP. In order to interface to an SDIX/DDIX, TDIX or TDXnet™ CP, the firmware in each monitor must be SDI/DDI compatible.
The System Monitor
must be configured correctly with jumpers depending upon the external Communication Processor that is being used. The DDM, TDM, and PDM use a different static interface than the SDIX/DDIX, TDIX, and TDXnet™ CPs. Refer to the System Monitor Manual (BN Document 89604, table 1) for specific jumper configurations. Table 3 in Section 2.4 lists the SDI/DDI compatible monitor firmware part numbers. The Mixed System can be upgraded to an SDI/DDI System, by changing the backplane, power supply, and the firmware in each of the monitors. 2.1.3 SDI/DDI System This generation of the 3300 System uses 3300/03 System Monitor. The System Monitor, Power Supply, and Backplane are all SDI/DDI-compatible, with the System Monitor configured with or without internal SDI/DDI communications and the firmware in each of the monitors is SDI/DDI compatible
The System Monitor must be configured correctly
with jumpers depending upon the external Communication Processor that is being used. The DDM, TDM, and PDM use a different static interface than the SDIX/DDIX, TDIX, and TDXnet™ communication processors. Refer to the System Monitor Manual (BN Document 89604, table 1) for specific jumper configurations. The SDI/DDI System is compatible with the following Bently Nevada Communications Processors and monitoring software packages: DDM CP, TDM CP, SDIX/DDIX CP, TDIX CP, TDXnet™ CP, DDM/TDM Software, DDM2/TDM2 Software, System 64 Software, and DM2000 Software.
